Beauty Is More Than Meets the Eye
There are beautiful creatures to grace plains.
There are beautiful flowers for bouquets. 
There are beautiful people …
         natural and otherwise.
Whether people, creatures or flowers,
        there is beauty all around.

One cannot...

More Than Meets the Eye
she runs down the hall 
she is meSsY 
she is LouD
she is an extrovert 
no, she is not

Yet when I look down, I see a sliver of color. 
A sign that tells me there is hope of going back.

More Than Meets the Eye
My true self I have hidden, 
And with bashfulness is ridden,

She's More Than Meets the Eye
Her beauty’s words that speak her mind
So effortlessly they form on the lips
Exposing her being, her true soul and thoughts

Her eyes are as opals, so bright, so clear
Looking fondly to others, for beauty within
Seeing past what may be obvious, into the depths
